The Prophet’s Prayer

³God came from Teman, The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, And the earth was full of His praise.

⁴His brightness was like the light; He had rays flashing from His hand, And there His power was hidden.

⁵Before Him went pestilence, And fever followed at His feet.

⁶He stood and measured the earth; He looked and startled the nations. And the everlasting mountains were scattered, The perpetual hills bowed. His ways are everlasting.

⁷I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.

⁸O Lord, were You displeased with the rivers, Was Your anger against the rivers, Was Your wrath against the sea, That You rode on Your horses, Your chariots of salvation?

⁹Your bow was made quite ready; Oaths were sworn over Your arrows. Selah You divided the earth with rivers.

¹⁰The mountains saw You and trembled; The overflowing of the water passed by. The deep uttered its voice, And lifted its hands on high.

¹¹The sun and moon stood still in their habitation; At the light of Your arrows they went, At the shining of Your glittering spear.

¹²You marched through the land in indignation; You trampled the nations in anger.
